Gene Toscano, Inc. successfully represented a client who was severely injured in an 18-wheeler accident on Interstate 10. The driver of the 18-wheeler had fallen asleep at the wheel, causing a multi-vehicle collision that left our client with serious spinal injuries, requiring multiple surgeries and long-term rehabilitation.
Through thorough investigation, we uncovered that the trucking company had violated federal regulations by forcing drivers to work beyond the legal limits without proper rest. Our legal team fought tirelessly to hold both the driver and the trucking company accountable for their negligence.
After a lengthy court battle, we secured a $2.5 million settlement for our client to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and future rehabilitation costs. This victory not only helped our client recover financially but also sent a message about the importance of upholding safety standards in the trucking industry.
